Why it matters

AI mentions are the new
buying recommendations.

When ChatGPT answers the question “Which provider do you recommend?” with three brands, that's not neutral information – it's a buying recommendation carrying enormous trust. Studies show: around 80 % of users now make at least part of their buying decisions with AI support.

The problem: these recommendations happen invisibly. No impression in your analytics, no click in Search Console. An AI brand mention leaves no trace with you – only with the customer.

GeoStars makes this blind spot visible: the tool records daily how often, where, and how AI systems mention your brand – and compares your numbers with those of your competitors.

What GeoStars records per mention

  • Platform & prompt – where and for which question you get named
  • Position – top recommendation or footnote?
  • Sentiment – positive, neutral, or critical
  • Context – the original wording of the AI answer
  • Citation – is your website linked as a source?
Features

Tracking AI brand mentions –
with system.

Multi-LLM tracking

Brand mentions in ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Perplexity, and Microsoft Copilot – one dashboard for all platforms instead of five manual spot checks.

Mention rate over time

Daily data points show you whether your mention rate is rising – and whether PR campaigns, content, or GEO measures actually land in AI answers.

Sentiment analysis

Every ChatGPT brand mention is rated automatically: does the AI recommend you with conviction, neutrally, or with reservations? Reputation becomes measurable.

Citation Tracking

A mention is good, a citation is better: GeoStars measures separately how often your website is linked as a source – your direct AI traffic channel.

Competitor mentions

See how often your competitors get mentioned – per prompt and in total. The Citation Gap shows you where you can win share.

Alerts on changes

New mention, sentiment turning, a competitor overtaking you: smart alerts notify you immediately by email.

Use cases

One tool – four teams,
that benefit from it.

Marketing

Prove with data that your campaigns land in AI answers. The mention rate before/after a campaign is the new brand lift reporting.

SEO & content

Understand which content AI systems cite – and build content that raises your Citation Rate instead of just chasing rankings.

PR & communications

Monitoring your AI reputation: GeoStars shows the original wording of every mention – you spot false claims and sentiment risks immediately.

Management

Share of Voice in AI as a management KPI: one value that shows whether your brand is winning or losing in the most important new recommendation channel.

Good to know

Why asking manually
doesn't work.

The obvious way to check your own ChatGPT brand mentions: just ask yourself. The problem – AI answers are not reproducible. The same question returns your brand today and three competitors tomorrow. With identical prompts, the answers match in less than 1 % of cases.

On top of that comes the personalization effect: your ChatGPT knows you, your company, your chats – and therefore names your brand to you more often than to real customers. A self-query is systematically flattering.

Reliable statements about your brand presence in AI only come from neutral, repeated, and automated measurements – across many days, many prompts, and all platforms. That is exactly the job GeoStars does. How the measurement methodology works in detail is explained on our page Measure AI visibility.

FAQ

AI brand mentions – frequently asked questions

Only systematic tracking can answer that – and that's exactly what GeoStars is built for: the tool sends your relevant prompts to ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Perplexity, and Microsoft Copilot every day and counts every brand mention. After 7 days you see reliable numbers: your mention rate per platform, per prompt, and over time.
Brand mentions are all the places where an AI system names your brand – as a recommendation (“We recommend GeoStars”), in comparisons, as a source, or in passing in the text. GeoStars distinguishes these types, because a top recommendation is worth far more to your business than a footnote.
A mention is your brand being named in the answer text. A citation is your website being linked as a source. Citations bring direct traffic and are a strong authority signal – GeoStars tracks both separately as mention rate and Citation Rate.
Yes – not through tricks, but through signals that AI systems take into account when picking brands: Wikipedia presence, mentions in trade media, Reddit reputation, structured citable content, and consistent brand facts. Which levers work best is covered in our guide “Get your brand mentioned in ChatGPT”. With GeoStars you then measure whether your actions work.
Yes. GeoStars stores the AI answers to your prompts so you can read the exact wording of every mention. If the sentiment tips or false statements appear, the smart alerts trigger – and you can counter with corrective content (e.g. a facts page).
Yes. Projects are unlimited in every package - the limit is the credit allowance, not the number of projects. Users are unlimited as well.
Social listening tools track mentions in social media, forums, and on websites – that is, publicly visible content. GeoStars tracks mentions in AI answers, which are generated individually, are ephemeral, and appear nowhere in public. That's a completely different, so far invisible channel – and it's exactly where buying decisions are made today.
Anywhere people ask AI for advice before a decision: SaaS and software, e-commerce, financial and insurance products, travel, B2B services, and local providers. The more advice-intensive your market, the more often the AI recommendation decides – and the more valuable it is to know whether your brand gets named.
